I do upgrades using sysupgrade. „sysupgrade auto“ does the right thing w.r.t. modules. Otherwise, if you want to reboot with the new kernel, you should run „sysupgrade modules“ before. Building from source, I do ./build.sh kernel=GENERIC modules # install kernel sudo ./build.sh installmodules=/ like the others in the thread suggested. — Benny
